Ocean views/4 bedrooms/One minute walk to black sand beach/Swim up Bar

Welcome to serenity! You will surely feel at ease in this 24 hour gated community in Playa Hermosa. As you enter the community, beautiful exotic birds and iguanas will greet you.

One bedroom is attached to the Master/3.5 Bathrooms/Large Shaded Balcony/ Ocean views/Natural light/large windows.

Once you enter the gate, turn left onto the second block and you will see Casa 93 halfway down the short block on your left. The yellow house is located half a block from the gorgeous community pool on the beach.

Guarded 24 HOURS! There is plenty of help if in need of immediate assistance. This is a handicap accessible area and home. Bathroom is equipped with extra side wall railings etc. Please ask for exact accommodations.

You will feel absolute comfort here. I am happy to provide personal chef information, tour info, trusted taxi driver, and housekeepers as requested. The beach club concierge is available to reserve any type of tour in the area.

Steps away from world renown waves & 5 mi. long beach, life becomes easy.

The Private Playa Hermosa Gated community offers access to an expansive pool with a swim up bar and delicious food from “YoYo’s” restaurant. Handicap access to beach. Keys to the pool will be provided at check-in.

The clubhouse provides plenty of lounge chairs and there is a line of palm trees on the beach to hangout or shield yourself from the strong sun as desired. There are plenty of places to hike around the area as well if you're feeling adventurous.

Located 10 minutes from Jaco, it is a short ride there to learn to surf on some smaller waves, find shops, restaurants and clubs. Jaco is the biggest city north of Hermosa Palms community area, so you will be able to find whatever you need there.

This black sand beach is also a Turtle sanctuary. Up to 20,000 turtles hatch each year and with a bit of luck you can see the enormous sea turtles arrive to one of their favorite nesting grounds. MONTHS: Best time to visit is July to December. Particularly in and around September, hatchlings are released almost daily!

Engage in as much relaxation or adventure that your soul desires. You will feel uplifted and grounded by the atmosphere within and outside this beautiful house.

Absolutely Amazing
We can’t tell you loud enough that this place and the VRBO adid is way understated. It’s clean, organized, has everything, close to the beach (world class surfing), amazing pool, (YoYo’s restaurant is unreal), secure, best neighbors, close restaurants, should I go on?? We had 12 people and it worked out great. The host communicated fast and I can’t thank them enough. 1:20 min to Manuel Antonio 1:00 hr to monkey tour 15 min to Jaco Book it, book it, book it The Read/Dayton families

Great Stay, Accommodation and Location. Terrific communication with host.
Wonderful stay. Communication with the host was terrific. Would definitely return. Property was in a safe location. FYI: The wi-fi and password were incorrect (different network and password) and just needs to be updated. Also, the bed on the 1st floor wasn't really a bed and the guest had to sleep on the couch.

The house was even nicer and more spacious and cozy than it looked online, which was a pleasant surprise. The pool and the beach were fantastic and so close. We had plenty of privacy and felt safe. I had to communicate with Liz on a few occasions and she was very helpful and responsive. We are used to using VRBO in the US, and the VRBO in Costa Rica was a little different in that it did not provide shampoo and conditioner. We also bought bath soap although there was pump soap provided. I asked for laundry detergent and Liz kindly supplied it, but I’m not sure it was supposed to be provided. Beds and pillows were plentiful and comfortable. All around wonderful stay and I’d come back.

EXCELLENT in every way!
We absolutely LOVED this property! It was even better than we expected. My husband (Costa Rica), myself, and our 4 kids brought some Costa Rican family with us for a Tuesday-Saturday stay. We parked our cars in the driveway and never took them back out until we departed the property! Liz was so responsive, attentive, and caring. We spent all our days enjoying the beach, the pool, walking around the development, and enjoying time at the beautiful home! HIGHLY recommend this place. :)

Great stay!!
The house is amazing! there is so much room and it is very comfortable, it has everything you need! We loved our stay here, the rooms are big and comfortable and the neighborhood is awesome. The pool is nice and big so even with a lot of people doesn't feel crowded! The host is super nice and she responds almost immediately to any concerns. There is no loud music allowed after 10pm so just be aware that is def not a crazy party neighborhood! (we kept the music just for ourselves and there was no problem though).

Exactly as advertised, and a little more!
I recently stayed at the house with a group of friends and it was spacious enough for nine of us to be there comfortably. The location is perfect if you are looking to stay away from the noise, yet still have enough amenities close by. Although I don't believe crime is big in near by Jaco, this beautiful private community felt safe at all times. The pool is perfect and the swim up bar has some amazing food and drinks. Plus you can't go wrong with the sunsets from the beach, only a couple minutes walk away. Liz was very easy to deal with, and always came back to me within a timely manner. Should I be in a similar position next time I travel to the region, I'll definitely come back!

The house was as pictured.
The house is conveniently located to the beach, a pool, a small market, and an outdoor shower to remove sand from the beach. The house had all the amenities we needed. It had good sound insulation and we couldn’t hear others when in the bedroom. When the AC broke a person was sent and fixed it immediately. Oh

Great stay beautiful house!
Had a great time staying at Liz’s VRBO. The house was beautiful and very spacious. Was in a nice gated community and very safe with Gards at the gate at all times. Beach was just steps away and the house was close to anything you would need. Really enjoyed our stay!
